If Mrs. NWC has any say trazodone will be in my future. I'm rarely asleep past 6, and when I start tossing and turning the dogs start getting antsy. I doubt that's going to get better as I get older.

No, it gets worse. Guaranteed.

I wake up and worry about stuff.

Sleep quality decreases with age for everyone. A few years ago, our son suggested that we give it a shot so he prescribed it for both of us. We take it every night and it kicks in after about 30 minutes. We go right to sleep and if I have to get up to go to the bathroom or something I go right back to sleep. 7-8 hours of quality sleep every night. Every now and then I forget to take it and I wake up around 3-4 am and am restless (in and out of sleep) the rest of the night. Game changer.

I've been taking 10mg of time release melatonin which works pretty good for 7-8 hours of sleep for the most part. I often wake up between sleep cycles but fall right back asleep.

I had to take Benadryl as well a while back, but I'm off of that now.

Ha with a OB/Gyn resident daughter who works nights 3 months out of the year I know trazodone. I think all of her colleagues take it religiously when they're on nights just to make sure they get a few solid hours of sleep during the day. And it's almost an emergency when one of them runs out of trazodone and someone else will get the refill for them.

Do you find it gets you through more than a few hours of sleep though? My daughter says it knocks her out, but it doesn't get her more than 5-6 hours of sleep when her regular schedule is off.

I have one word for you: Trazodone.

You can thank me later.

Woke up at 445 and couldn't get back to sleep. It was either doomscrolling or getting off my ass to take a picture.

Good morning from the shores of the Salish Sea.

Swampy, you are very talented. Those are some incredible photos.

[Bo Diddley]

I might have to take up bird watching as a hobby.
